Last week, the INDEX mentioned the
capture of Smith and Vincent, two
horse thieYes, who had p head of stolen
horses in their possession. The two
men are here in Jail, and another one OF
the gang, who was captured at Kiowa
is also here. Their trial will likely be
commenced to-day. Last Wednesday
FIVE Cheyenne Indians came here from
the Territory and identified three OF
the stolen horses. They went away and
on Sunday returned with three Other
Indians and a deputy United States
marshal and the outfit identified all OF
the other horses, with the exception OF
three, and these the deputy marshal in
sisted on taking with him, and was
only prevented after some plain talk
from Sheriff Nelson. The Indians took
their stock away from here Sunday
So far, Sheriff Nelson has not received
any money for the part he took in the
capture. 1t is said that large reward
was offered for the capture and cOnvic-
ton of these thieves, and with every
other citizens of Barber county we
think our plucky sheriff should have
his share of the reward.
